    That's a neat hive! Did you make it? Is that 2 colonies?

    Oh, yes, congrats! I hope they make lots of good honey for you. [​IMG]

    SamG347- No I haven't seen any of your photos, but I'd sure love to see some!


    No it's not two colonies just two photos of one colony. My boyfriend and I made the hive based on the plan on Biobees.com although we had to change it a bit to ad a hinged floor on the bottom rather then just mesh. And we create the roof idea since the plan at biobees doesn't really have a roof.

    And we painted it to match our house:D
